The Royal Bath and West show starts on Wednesday and I’m looking forward to the return of French ornithologist Christian Moullec.This is Christian flying low over the arena last year followed by a flock of geese that believe he’s their Dad.I think he’s bringing his Grey Cranes this year.

Remember those days in the 1970s when you could get a fresh cooked breakfast with toast and marmalade on the train to London.And train ticket cost less than the microwave breakfast does today, and they still had Gollywogs on the Robertson marmalade.

One last look at Southgate 30 years ago before they built the new Southgate Centre.The only remaining landmark you can see is Churchill house at the bottom of the street and that’s almost gone now,as they have almost finished knocking that down as well.

Mum and Dad away with Hels, David and the girls so I'm trawling the pics on my computer to see what hasn't already been posted. Here's me and a dinosaur in the late 70's. I look thoroughly ungrateful for the fantastic learning opportunities my parents provided!

You can tell we're rank amateurs by the fact the quality drops immediately dad has gone away!This photo (though technically rubbish) deserves to be included as Nutella fans around the world will be thrilled to see that it is now available in 5kg pots. We saw them in the window of a pancake place in Rome and couldn't walk past without taking a photo.

It’s Wendy 60th Birthday on Tuesday, Pension, BusPass, Free Prescriptions.So we thought we would have a few days in Cardiff, Nick and Andy are at home and will deal with the daily updates to the Blog.Wendy’s holding the special gluten free cake made by Nicky.

I Photographed Rufus Sewell when he was at the Bath Theatre Royal, and was surrounded by the female staff members wanting to see the pictures when I returned.I don’t think that anybody I have photographed has caused the same reaction from colleagues.
